THIRD TOME MEET Cambridge' High, c o m p e t in g against the High Schools of Mary- la.nd and some of Delaware, showed up very well in the Tome Meet by placing itself third with 18V, points to its credit. The cups for the first and second places went to Belair and Middle- town. Orem started things oif by placing second in the 880-yard run. Then MeCarter took first place in the pole-vault with 9 ft., 9 in. McCarter set a record in this event for High School vaulters. Newcomb came third in the same event. The mile relay composed of Bur- ton, Wilkinson, Cook and Orem showed some splendid running and came second. In the high jump Bur- ton and McCarter tied for fourth place bringing the total points for Ole C. H. S. up to 18W. TWEN TY YEARS BACK tContinued from page 12, Col. 3j Geneva Elizabeth Mitchell, an aunt of one of the members of the 35 class, is now Mrs. Edwin Dash- iell. Evelyn Nield is Mrs. Thomas of Baltimore. Julia Ruark is Mrs. Alfred Hoge. Olive Ruark, the salutatorian, didn't follow the same pursuit as her sister, Julia, for she is still a Miss and is living in Washington. Lucy Ruark, now Mrs. Carroll Dail, has introduced the fad of Bi- cycling. Joe Robbins now owns one of the restaurants in town. He has a daughter Doris, who graduates in '37, Elizabeth Ross is now Mrs. Richie of Baltimore. Sophia Roberts met with an unfor- tunate accident in 1920 when she was struck and killed by lightning. Arthur Spaid is the son of A. R. Spaid, who was superintendent of Dorchester County schools at that time. Nellie Smith is another teacher, at Peach Blossom. D'Arcy Todd is Captain of Com- pany C and employed at the State Hospital. May Waller, Mrs. Addison Al- baugh, resides in Baltimore. Mary Wherrette is a teacher of Baltimore City Schools. So ends the list of those who had as their motto Be sharp-Be nat- ural written in musical terms. Most of them must have remembered this motto no matter what their chosen profession. We notice that the field of the teaching profession has claimed its share. Each seems to have been successful in his or her own way. 7 SUITING HIMSELF FOR THE DANCE The following was found in the October 1927 Hottentot : James Busick is an imaginative boy. When asked how to expand an outline in his composition book, en- titled How to Make a Suit, James wrote the following essay: Suit-making is an enviable ac- complishment. Great skill and judg- ment are required. In making a suit, one must be steady and tend to his business. My parents want me to be a tailor because I enjoy cutting out patterns and other interesting things. My first attempt was made when to my sorrow I found that my mother had sent my suit to a tailor to have it pressed and I did not have anything to wear to the dance. When I was looking through the closet I happened to find some material my mother used to make my suits with. I first cut the material into two parts, one for the coat and the other for the pants. I cut the pieces for the coat a little too big and I had to trim it down to the right meas- urements. I got the measurements out of an old book mother had. Af- ter I had cut out both coat and pants, I basted them around the sleeves and legs. I then placed them up in front of me and looked into a mirror and marked the places that needed fixing. I then sewed the parts together that needed sewing. I put the finishing touches on it with the sewing machine. After I had finished I put the suit on and admired myself in the mirror. I was pleased that I could make my own suit and so I decided that I would always make my own own clothes. We wonder if Mr. Busick still makes his own clothes?

T I think a few dancing lessons might surprise Nathan Pritchett. G0 to the High Spot some night and see if I'm right. . Every time Ruth Richardson sees a friend it is always How ya doin' U. For a half-pint Leslie Thomas can chew gum the loudest of any boy I have ever seen. Since Ed has left, Louise 'Orem seems rather downcast. ' Lillian Cantwellls affections are varying. First' it is a Mr. Cox, then a M1'. McQuillen. Why does Junie Robertson go about singing Things Have Been So Different? I have been wondering why Jane Cunningham joined the Country Club. . James Windsor liked Washington so well he got left, accidentally on purpose. On Saturday nights, one can find Grace Lowe near the Arcade Thea- ter where a green Ford sedan is usu- ally parked. Reginald Brooks hates to be teased about a girl. I'll bet he has one though! Henry Linthicum has so many girls on a string he doesn't know which Way to turn without bumping into one. Catherine Todd certainly thinks the name of Harold is a nice one. Speed Wells claims he is a mis- pgynist. QTU my dumb friends, it means a woman-haterj. Donald Spedden and Herbert Dail are so quiet fly, that I have- n't a word to say about them. I will be quiet too! ! ! Frances Price is so noisy that as soon as she is a block from school everybody stuffs their ears. Tommy Cannon likes a girl in school an awful lot, but he won't let me in on his secret. QI think it is Arline, but don't tell anybodyj. - Anna Truitt has her own idea about Cooks , I have heard she jsihard to please, but she is satisfied with the present one. - ,Annalie Brohawn likes Mutts.

When we started our course we were rath- er excited over the prospect of a school bank. Miss Dunn, the cash- ier, permitted us to deposit anything from a penny up. Then came Christ- mas bringing the need for extra money to buy gifts for our f1'iends but our problems were solved be- cause we had saved in our school bank. Deposits were made regularly and recently a boy drew out his account which amounted to S20.00. Another boy has saved fifty cents weekly. By saving their pennies, nickels, and dimes these boys and the other mem- bers of the class have dollars now instead of cents. With these savings we will be able to take a nice camp- ing trip during vacation, buy some new clothes, or deposit it in a bank where it will earn us interest. Take a tip from us and save your pennies, nickels, and dimes, and soon they will be dollars. As the result of our thrift and saving we have saved over S300.00. We wish to extend our greatest thinks to Miss Dunn for proving through our school bank that saving pays, for without this ability to save we could never become good busi- ness men and women. Ben Newcomb is getting old- fashioned. His latest hobby is square dancing. I hope Ann Bryan gets her dip- loma. She is looking very studious these days. Ellsworth Tilman likes to play Monkey in class. Bill Vickers seems to like one of the Jones girls. Naomi is the first name. Russell McCarter goes riding al- most evcry night. A girl in his class accompanies him almost every night, too. Fred Jones, don't you know you polish brass if caught hooking? Bet- ter be careful. I can't think of a bit of scandal for Byrn Phelps. He is a newcomer in this high school and I don't know his weakness. What club will you join this sum- mer, Tom1ny Meredithl? You seem to belong to nearly all of them now: Is it the pretty little pins you like? William Rumbley certainly had a sunburn from field day. Wonder where he was staring so intently he didn't notice the sun's heat? TWENTY YEARS BACK Turn the pages of time back just twenty. years-1915. As we look over the programme for that year de- noting the Commencement exercises held at the Grand Opera House we sec listed the names of a class num- bering thirty-one. Those of the class of 1935 are probably now wondering what will be said of them twenty years from now. We may all prophesy but af- ter all who knows the fate of each of his class members? For that rea- son we thought it would be a pleas- ant check up to see what has be- fallen the members of the '15 class. To those who were the officers of the class we turn first: Milton Spry Andrews, president of the class, is a minister residing in Denton, Maryland. George Dewey Holder, vice-presi- dent, is a prominent business man of our city, one of the owners of the town's best stationery stores. Mary Elizabeth Gray, secretary, is Mrs. Ben Robbins of this city. Harold Wilson Dail, treasurer, is living in New York City. This completes the list of those who were nnamed as the officers, let us now glance over the class roll. Eva Conway has not changed or added a Mrs. to her name, she is liv- ing with her parents in Cambridge. Mary Agnes Dunn, sister of Miss Nora Dunn, is deceased. Mary' Catherine Davis is now Mrs. Wallace Flowers. She lives in Salis- bury but does not forget to visit Cambridge quite frequently. Marguerite Grace Gillis has be- come Mrs. Howard Robbins of Cam- bridge. Frances Hilda Harrington lives in Baltimore. She is now Mrs. Guy Bryan. Helen Elizabeth Hastings is work- ing for Nathan's Furniture Store. Roland Henry Hoge lives in Cam- b1'idge and is connected with Dorset Laundry. Mary Hearn is now Mrs. Shryock and lives in Baltimore. , Ruth Hearn is now Mrs. Hobart Phillips of Cambridge. Edwin C. Hopkins, Jr., is now one of the directors of Phillips Packing Company. Evelyn Elizabeth Johnson, who was valedictorian of her class, has not given up studics for she is now an elementary supervisor of schools in Dorchester County. ,Marguerite Mildred Kirwan is now in the teaching profession at Cripo. Nellie Marion Marshall is now em- ployed in IVashington. Alice Meredith is also employed i11 Wasllingtoll. QC'ontinucd to page 11, Col. 25 MEMOIRS FROM . WASHINGTON Shortly after. six o'c1ock on April 12, two bus loads of students, chap- eroned by Mr. Andrews, Mr. Koch and Mis Linthicum, left Cambridge to visit Washington. Our trip up was, as they say, an uneventful one. Upon Washington we drove buildings looking for blossoms, which were storm a few days before had played havoc with the blossoms. arriving in around the the cherry not. The The first pl-ace we visited was the Lincoln Memorial. After having gazed upon the statue of Honest Abe , some of dur party felt a de- sire to drop in on the President at the White House. Mr. Koch obtained permission for us to see several rooms in the White House not open to She general pub- lic, the Blue Room, the Green Room and the Dining Roomiqf ' VVe went from tl1e White House to the Capitol. There, for ten cents apiece, we secured guides who show- cd us through the building. After the tour of inspection a number of us wished to climb to the dome, a mere several hundred steps. All went very well until sev- eral of us in coming down slightly confused the stairways and lauded out the back door of the capitol. As soon as the crowd visited the five and ten cent stores we headed for tl1e museums. The first was the Art Gallery. We went from there to the National Historical Museum and then to the Smithsonian Insti- tute. To tell of any of the intere t- ing things in these places is to slight equally important ones. Next on our list came the Library of Congress, by far the most beauti- ful building, inside, of any we went through. The beauty of the Con- gressional Library was quite a shock to a great many of us, who thought all libra1'ies were just libraries and looked like the Dorchester County Public Library. The last place we graced with our presence before we turned toward Cambridge was the new Folger Shakespearean Library. The most interesting thing to us was the rep- lica of .1 Shakespearean theatre. As we made ready to leave We discovered that two of our worthy brothers, James Windsor and Ar- thur Brooks, l1,1d completely disap- peared. Although Mr. Andrews and Mr. Koch looked for them, they could not be found. The trip home was not nearly so uneventful as the one going for Mary Alice' Cronigter entertained us all thefway. .3 ' Q lla, 6 ' .
